On Thanksgiving my BFF and I ran our first Turkey Trot,
which also happened to be our first 10k. The experience was absolutely amazing.
The race took place in downtown Detroit and went through the America’s
Thanksgiving Day parade route, making it such a fun environment.

What I learned:
• Running in a tutu is the worst idea ever – it was constantly between my legs
• Athleta makes the BEST workout pants ever
• Turtle Gloves are amazing and a must for any runner
• Bring your own water
• Don’t take it so seriously – stop and take pictures
• I need a knee brace
• Good shoes are a must
